First edition first UK printing with contemporary insurance policy advertisement bookmark loosely inserted. An extensively researched work covering the movements and actions of the Irish Guards from their mobilisation the First Battalion on 4th August 1914 the Second from the 15th July 1915 through to Armistice day. The Irish Guards were one of the first regiments to be mobilised and they remained on the Western Front for the duration of the war. They took part in one of the bloodiest battles of 1914 the battle of Ypres as well as the Battle of the Somme and faced huge casualties throughout the duration of the war. Their motto Quis Separabit which appears on the covers of this work translated from the Latin as "Who shall separate us" and comes from the Order of St Patrick. Kipling had good reason to focus his attention on this particular regiment. Upon the outbreak of the First World War the author s only son John was keen to enlist and after failing a series of medical examinations due to poor eyesight it was his father who eventually succeeded in getting him a place being lifelong friends with Lord Roberts former commander-in-chief of the British Army and colonel of the Irish Guards. John joined the Irish Guards and at the battle of Loos was sent into fight two days into the battle in a reinforcement contingent. Missing in action he was presumed dead in service to his country and his body was not formerly identified until 1992. Kipling was devastated by his loss and consumed with guilt at his part in arranging his son s placement. He later wrote in Epitaphs of the War "If any question why we died / Tell them because our fathers lied." Recollection fades from men s minds as common as life closes over them Kipling writes here in his introduction. It is for the sake of these initiated that the compiler has loaded his records with detail and seeming triviality since in a life where Death ruled every hour nothing was trivial. A fascinating historical record scarce in the jackets and often regarded as one of the finest examples of regimental history. Collectible More images available on request.

KIPLING, Rudyard; Foreword by WEBB, George:
THE IRISH GUARDS IN THE GREAT WAR: The First Battalion and The Second Battalion.
Kent: Spellmount. 1997. Two volumes. The first volume is the third printing the second volume is a first printing of this illustrated reissue of Kipling's 1923 work. Original red Vol. I and green Vol. II cloth lettered in gilt to the spine in the illustrated dustwrappers. Illustrated map endpapers showing the itineraries of the first and second battalions of the Irish Guards. A very near fine set the bindings square and firm the cloth and gilt sharp the contents clean throughout. In the unclipped dustwrappers fine except for a touch of fading to the spine of Vol. II both volumes priced £24.95 to their front flaps. An attractive set. Kipling's ambitious regimental history of the Irish Guards originally published in 1923 is an unusually personal work. In 1914 the author's son John then aged seventeen volunteered for military service and was rejected he was under age and suffered from poor eyesight. The following year through Kipling's friendship with Lord Roberts Colonel-in-Chief of the Irish Guards John gained a commission with the regiment travelling to France where he was killed in the Battle of Loos he was eighteen. Kipling was haunted by the loss for the rest of his life. When approached about writing a history of the Irish Guards "not on business terms but as a monument of his son's service" he spent over five years researching and writing the work. A substantial and vivid piece of historical scholarship it is a neglected Kipling masterpiece. This generously illlustrated edition includes a foreword by George Webb editor of The Kipling Journal and a biographical sketch of John Kipling reproduced from the Irish Guards Journal. Further details and images for any of the items listed are available on request. Lucius Books welcomes direct contact with our customers. Kent: Spellmount. 1997 hardcover

The Jungle Book IN RARE 1890s DUST JACKET
<p>12mo. AEG. 276 pp. 4 pp. ads. Publisher's presentation blue cloth binding with illustrated dust jacket. The evidence indicates that this jacket and binding are original unused stock from the 1890s. During the 1900-20 period Macmillan offered four Kipling titles - <em>The Jungle Book The Second Jungle Book Captains Courageous</em> and <em>Soldier Tales</em> - in "special bindings for presentation" in addition to the standard red cloth trade editions. The bindings and jackets used for this special offering match the original bindings and jackets issued on those same four titles in the 1890s and at the same 6-shillings price on the jacket spines. If Macmillan had been issuing new bindings and jackets to replicate the 1890s style it probably would not have included Soldier Tales a very slow seller in such an offering. Nor were any popular post-1900 titles such as Kim or Puck of Pook's Hill included in this special offering - just the four titles that originally had the ornate blue bindings and illustrated jackets in the 1890s - thus the conclusion that Macmillan was using up leftover bindings and jackets. This copy slightly musty and cocked usual endpaper offsetting binding clean and unworn very good jacket with minor perimeter chips and tears but almost no loss a few bits of old tape on underside but clean complete and attractive. Kipling's classic children's story with a rare 1890s jacket of which only a handful survived on 1890s copies and with few if any surviving examples recorded on presentation copies - not seen by Richards for his 2010 Kipling bibliography.
